Chaos Warlord: Reincarnated in Eldrich with the Devil System!

“We’ll take it from here.”

Saying so, Oliver and Alex released an intense amount of soul power.

The combined volume of their soul power was like a lake that threatened to overturn the land.

As it spread outwards like a natural disaster, it consumed everything in its path.

It crashed against the elemental onslaught of the most powerful beasts of the tide, negating it entirely.

And even then, it didn’t show signs of weakening.

It moved forward and smashed into the beasts!

Bam!

It sounded like the judgement of God was passed down as the massive beasts were lifted off their feet and thrown away. After a while, they crashed into the ground like broken toys.

“I got this,” Oliver said as he threw out a wooden sword.

The sword seemed to have gained a life of its own as it pierced through the heads of the beasts before they could get back on their feet. Its speed was so great that none of the beasts had the chance to react or dodge in time. In but an instant, they were all killed in the same manner, their lifeless bodies collapsing to the ground.

The wooden sword made its way back to Oliver, landing smoothly in his hand.

A thoughtful look found its way to Val’s face. ‘Though Oliver’s cursed sword looks ordinary as if made out of wood, it’s anything but that. Its sharpness matches my own Voidslayer since it managed to easily pierce through the thick skulls of 10 level 35 to 40 beasts.

‘And it’s also a flying sword, making it priceless.’

‘It was foolish of me to think Oliver would be interested in stealing my sword if he knew it has developed a spirit. He already has a spirit weapon.’

“Are you curious about it?” Alex asked.

“Yeah, a little,” Val admitted.

“Well if you’re curious, why don’t you just ask? I don’t mind sharing its history with you, and I believe that Oliver won’t either,” Alex said with a teasing smile. “Right, Oliver?”

“Yeah,” Oliver said. “But I will do the talking.”

“What significance does it hold?” Val asked.

Oliver replied with a somewhat proud smile, “It’s the heirloom of the Destiny Walker.”

“Destiny Walker? What is that?” Val asked, puzzled.

Alex blinked in surprise. “You don’t know?”

Val shook his head.

Just then, his sixth sense flared up, and he was jolted into alertness.

“Incoming,” he swiftly warned Oliver and Alex.

In the distance, a behemoth beast stomped heavily on the ground.

The earth trembled, and deadly spikes erupted from the spot beneath their feet.

Thanks to Val’s timely warning, they were able to react to the surprise attack in time. They leapt backward, narrowly evading the threatening spikes.

Alex looked threateningly at the behemoth beast, “You’ve made the worst mistake of your life. And it’s going to be your last.”

The very next moment, a swirling vortex of wind appeared around Alex’s fingertips. He extended his arm towards the distant beast, and the vortex shot out in a concentrated gust, much like a bullet.

Swoosh!

The wind bullet pierced through the air with a loud whistle. It darted across the battlefield at breakneck speed, so fast that it was nearly invisible to the naked eye. Even Val struggled to keep up with it despite straining his eyes.

The wind bullet easily penetrated the beast, its powerful momentum leaving a hole right through the creature’s skull.

Kuagh!

The beast let out a strangled yelp as it slumped onto the ground, life extinguishing from its eyes almost instantly.

Watching this, Val felt as if he have been humbled. A level 40 beast was killed just like that! Were all the people of the Thunderspear tribe this strong? Or was Alex special?

Alex then turned back to Val, offering him a thumbs-up in appreciation.

“Nice call, Val. Even I didn’t see that coming.”

“Ne neither,” Oliver said. “How did you do that?”

Val smiled awkwardly. “I just have a special sense towards danger.”

Just as he finished his sentence, a beast appeared.

It was a monstrous creature, covered in thick, armored scales and bristling with razor-sharp teeth. Its claws were the most horrifying part about it. They were long and thick like swords and its tail was covered in spikes.

It looked like a crossbreed between a lizard and a nightmarish monster, and it was giving off the same aura as the beast Alex just killed.

“That’s a Scalebound Lizard!” Alex called out.

“What do you know about it?” Val asked.

“A lot,” Alex replied.

“Tell us,” Oliver said.

“Okay.” 𝗈𝚟𝓵ℯxt.𝕔𝑂𝔪

Alex shared quickly with Oliver and Val what he knew about it.

The Scalebound Lizard was a formidable level 40 beast, notorious for its dense, scale-covered hide that rendered it impervious to most physical attacks.

Its primary attacks relied heavily on its ferocious strength and agility, making it a lethal predator. Its attack pattern was simple. It lunges at the opponent closest to it.

“Considering the sharpness of mine and Oliver’s weapons, its entire body is like one big weak point. So we don’t need to actively target its belly. We also know its attack pattern. We can take advantage of this to end it quickly,” Val said.

“It’s about to make a move,” Alex said as the beast’s eyes glowed ominously, a murderous glint shining in them.

“Oliver, provide me with cover,” Val said as he stepped forward. He took this risk because he needed to kill the beast with his own hand if he wanted to earn EXP!

Suddenly, the ScaleBound Lizard leapt towards Val. Its cavernous mouth was wide open, ready to swallow him whole in a single gulp.

Oliver conjured a protective shield made of soul power just in the nick of time.

Bam!

A thundering voice sounded as the beast slammed headfirst into the solid barrier.

Cracks appeared on the barrier before it shattered.

But the beast also paid a heavy price.

It suffered from a violent concussion and slumped to the ground.

Seeing the beast disoriented and temporarily incapacitated, Val thought that a golden opportunity had presented itself to him.

‘I have to seize it.’

He thought as he swung his sword with all his might.

The blade tore through the beast from its jaw to its skull, splitting its face open in two. Blood and brain matter gushed out from the fresh wound.

With that, all the most powerful beasts of the Beast Tide died!

Only the weakling with power level ranging from level 20 to 35 were left.
